Note that the failing checks are about new links to external sites in the markdown files. I've checked them manually and they work fine. The errors we're seeing include: I believe they are both reacting to the 'bot-like' nature of the linter. |
An unlocked Secret Service collection does not require a desktop session. The DISPLAY/WAYLAND_DISPLAY check rejects legitimate SSH and terminal sessions even when their keyring is already available. Use actual bus connectivity and Secret Service initialization as the availability checks rather than treating the presence of a display as proof. Native error details and actionable guidance help users distinguish an absent service from a locked collection or a cancelled prompt. Provider-owned prompting remains unchanged. Headless users still need to provision their session bus and unlock collections through their provider; this change does not introduce terminal prompting or start D-Bus explicitly.

This works for me, I guess this is a transient error (probably they try to defend against AI onslaught). |
